Not only is this a great way to drink water, but it's also a great way to be frugal! This works great with bottled water and makes tap water drinkable!
I love coconut water, so I take water and put 2 to 3 drops of coconut flavoring in it. This works well with most of the flavorings, just depends what you like. Saves money on buying the flavored waters, soda, and juice. I save about $10.00 to $15.00 a week on drinks. And the upside is no sugar!

When the grocery budget is incredibly tight, flavored water is a luxury item that is quickly cut from my grocery list. I have found an inexpensive alternative with True Lemon flavoring packets. Locally, I can purchase 32 count boxes of True Lemon for less than $4.00. I can order lime, grapefruit and orange flavors online for less than $5.00 a 32 count box. Online specials sometimes allow me to buy a 32 count box for even less than that.
I can have flavored watered for .15 a bottle or less. I think, that's as frugally priced as flavored water gets. It's also less expensive and healthier than soft drinks. As a bonus, there are many other ways to use these flavor packets. You'll get a whole list of ideas with an online order and shipping rates are unbelievably reasonable.
